Artist Statement

“I wanted to be an architect but I found I could draw a crooked line better than a straight one. So, I thought I’d better become an artist.”

Raymond Chow

Raymond Chow won early recognition in his teenage years after winning many art competitions. This led to many art dealers visiting his parent’s home, ready to buy a Raymond Chow original.

In the mid-1950’s, Raymond began his art career creating black ink drawings of Vancouver buildings. His drawings sold for around $50 in those days which he created using his favorite 25 cent ball point ink pen.

Throughout his career, Raymond met many figureheads who have commissioned him for paintings. Some have included Clint Eastwood, Sunny and Cher, and Princess Elizabeth of Yugoslavia.
